Diamond Bakery Supports Students
Diamond Bakery Supports Students
Diamond Bakery recently unveiled its 2011 “Clip for Classroom” program to Leeward District school representatives during a presentation at Kapolei Middle School. From now through Feb. 28, 2012, students and teachers clip UPC barcodes from 6 ounce or larger packages of Diamond Bakery cookies and crackers. Each UPC barcode collected earns 15 cents for classroom supplies and 10 cents in charitable giving to Aloha United Way. UPC barcodes are redeemed at the Education Works store located at Dole Cannery Shops. Once the program period ends, Diamond Bakery will make a donation to Aloha United Way.

Teeing Off Against Hunger
Honolulu Country Club Foundation held its seventh annual Charity Golf Tournament Aug. 12. All proceeds went to Hawaii Foodbank, which has seen an increase of families and children needing help. Over the past seven years, the foundation has donated more than $450,000 to local charities. Pictured (from left) are Danny Kaleikini, Dick Grimm, Rick Rarick, Rick Hamada and Gary Brown.
Shirts Support Red Cross
Representatives from Walmart and Happy Shirts presented the American Red Cross with a check for $13,772.40 to benefit the Japan earthquake and Pacific tsunami relief efforts. The funds were raised from the sale of special T-shirts at Walmart stores in Hawaii during the summer.
